Fiery Enugu State Catholic priest Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has called for the arrest of more judges, saying that God was revolutionalising Nigeria with the arrest of judges who were hitherto, the untouchables.
He also called for prayers for Pres. Buhari and has absolved him of blame in the country’s economic challenges. Fr. Mbaka, however, reassured Nigerians that the current economic condition in the country will soon be over.
In a sermon to mark the opening of the 2016/2017 Legal Year, organised by Enugu State Judiciary, Mbaka recalled that, in 2012, he prophesied that doom time would follow the oil boom, if there was no good planning of the country’s resources.
“But, the past administration was one of ‘loot as much as you can.’ Look at a place like the Niger Delta and one of them became president and did nothing for his people and now, you want Buhari to perform magic.
But, we are a mono economy and every country depending on oil is suffering the same fate with Nigeria today. Buhari is not the cause of hunger in the country; not the cause of starvation in Nigeria.
The tap root of Nigeria’s economy has been cut; Buhari is just trying to hold a rolling vehicle; a vehicle that the brakes have been destroyed. So, Buhari is not the cause. If GEJ was the president today, the situation would have been worse.
Economic recession will not last long; the solution will come in a super natural way. So, all we have to do is to pray for Buhari; he has good agenda but, many around him are planning to pull him down.”
On the recent arrest of judges, Mbaka said Nigerians are beginning to lose hope in the Judiciary, “but with Buhari’s revolutionary experience going on, I am not saying that all who are accused are guilty but, I am saying that judges ought to remain incorruptible.
If they are corrupt, they should be arrested and whoever arrests them should be praised. “So, if president Buhari has that courage, that lion heart, to touch the tiger’s tail, he is a hero.”
